Download or read book Career Development and Systems Theory written by Wendy Patton and published by Sense Publishers. This book was released on 2006 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Systems Theory Framework was developed to produce a metatheoretical framework through which the contribution of all theories to our understanding of career behaviour could be recognised. In addition it emphasises the individual as the site for the integration of theory and practice. Its utility has become more broadly acknowledged through its application to a range of cultural groups and settings, qualitative assessment processes, career counselling, and multicultural career counselling. For these reasons, the STF is a very valuable addition to the field of career theory. In viewing the field of career theory as a system, open to changes and developments from within itself and through constantly interrelating with other systems, the STF and this book are adding to the pattern of knowledge and relationships within the career field. The contents of this book will be integrated within the field as representative of a shift in understanding existing relationships within and between theories. In the same way, each reader wilt integrate the contents of the book within their existing views about the current state of career theory and within their current theory-practice relationship.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is focused on work, occupation and career development: themes that are fundamental to a wide range of human activities and relevant across all cultures. Yet theorizing and model building about this most ubiquitous of human activities from international perspectives have not been vigorous. An examination of the literature pertaining to career development, counseling and guidance that has developed over the last fifty years reveals theorizing and model building have been largely dominated by Western epistemologies, some of the largest workforces in the world are in the developing world. Career guidance is rapidly emerging as a strongly felt need in these contexts. If more relevant models are to be developed, frameworks from other cultures and economies must be recognized as providing constructs that would offer a deeper understanding of career development. This does not mean that existing ideas are to be discarded. Instead, an integrative approach that blends universal principles with particular needs could offer a framework for theorizing, research and practice that has wider relevance. The central objective of this handbook is to draw the wisdom and experiences of different cultures together to consider both universal and specific principles for career guidance and counseling that are socially and economically relevant to contemporary challenges and issues. This book is focused on extending existing concepts to broader contexts as well as introducing new concepts relevant to the discipline of career guidance and counseling.

This book was released on 2012-11-02 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the New York Post's Top 10 Career Books of 2012 and a Booklist Top 10 Business Book DO YOU WORK WITH A MEAN GIRL? A woman’s field guide to the new frontier of professional development—working with other women Women-to-women relationships in the workplace are . . . complicated. When they’re good, they’re great. But when they’re bad, they can ruin your day, your week—even your year. Packed with proven advice from two of today’s leading experts in workplace relationships, this one-of-a-kind guide gives women the tools they need to navigate difficult situations unique to women-to-women relationships—whether with a boss, a colleague, a client, or an employee. Have you dealt with a woman in the workplace who: “Accidentally” excludes you from important meetings? Seems intent on taking you down professionally? Gossips about you with other coworkers? Makes you look bad by missing deadlines? Forms a “pack” of mean girls to make your life miserable? Mean Girls at Work isn’t just about surviving difficult situations. It’s about transforming a toxic relationship into one that benefits and supports both of you. This book is also for women who engage in mean behavior . . . but don’t know it. After all, who hasn’t gossiped about a female coworker? Who hasn’t rolled her eyes in the presence of a woman she doesn’t like? Who hasn’t scanned another woman head to toe—which is just a nonverbal way of saying, “You’ve just been judged”? The authors provide invaluable advice to the more subtle ways of being mean—even if they’re not intended. With a workforce composed of a higher percentage of women than ever, workplace dynamics have changed. Crowley and Elster cover every conceivable scenario, providing critical advice on how to rise above the fray and move forward professionally. Mean Girls at Work is your map to dodging the mines and moving forward in today’s transformed workplace. Praise for Mean Girls at Work “An invaluable suit of armor for surviving nine to five!” —Leil Lowndes, bestselling author of How to Talk to Anyone “If you think the emotional cruelty of comedies like Mean Girls and Heathers doesn’t exist in the real world workplace, think again. In Mean Girls at Work, Katherine Crowley and Kathi Elster valuably chronicle female vs. female predators and offer solid defensive strategies.” —Ann Kreamer, author of It’s Always Personal: Navigating Emotion in the New Workplace “Whether you are in your twenties and just starting your professional career, your midcareer forties, when you are supposed to have figured it out already, or a woman in her fifties or sixties who’s seen it all—this book is a must-read. . . . The authors have finally given women the tools and the sound advice necessary to deal with . . . conflicts that keep us all from succeeding. . . . Carry this book with you to work every day!” —Carolyn Cassin, President, Michigan Women’s Foundation “A must-read for women of all ages in today’s workforce. This book offers what we all need to develop the capacities to endure this ever-changing workplace. We know it is all about relationships and you need the skills outlined in this book to survive and thrive when the Mean Girls attack.” —Kim Harrington, Coordinator, Professional Development and Training, Office of Human Resources, California State University, Sacramento

Book excerpt: Built for More, The Role of OST in Preparing Youth for the Future of Work will highlight OST research and illustrative practices and bring forward multi-disciplinary perspectives about future trends, innovations, and the impact of OST on the future workforce. The focus is on OST programs as well as related activities that contribute to employability, such as summer work, internships, apprenticeships, disability inclusion, career-focused mentoring, and more. The book will also lift up voices traditionally left out of the OST conversation, including BIPOC, rural, and other marginalized communities. Given that the world of work is rapidly evolving, what are the most important ways we should be framing education and youth development work? Define forces and illuminate the trends reshaping the necessary skills that youth will need to thrive professionally, personally, and to positively impact their communities. What are the skills that employers are saying are most valuable due to transformation from automation, machine learning, and the 4th industrial age we are experiencing globally? What are key demographic shifts that add urgency to the imperative for change in our human development ecosystems? ENDORSEMENTS: "Built for More: The Role of Out-of-School Time in Preparing Youth for the Future of Work is a compelling, insightful must read about the current and future trends on out-of-school time. This book is loaded with fascinating detail and interdisciplinary perspectives that highlight the impact of OST on teaching and learning, workforce development, and creating global citizens for a diverse society. This book makes a persuasive argument that is difficult to refute and should be required reading for anyone interested in the future of young people in the United States." — Joshua Childs, University of Texas at Austin "As a youth empowerment leader committed to breaking systemic barriers and fostering transformative change, Built for More: The Role of OST in Preparing Youth for the Future of Work is an important resource. This book highlights the key institutional shifts needed to cultivate youth agency within our rapidly evolving educational, professional and technological landscape. Its focus on the impact of out-of-school time (OST) programs and critical pathways such as internships, apprenticeships, and career focused mentoring offers important insights to bridge the gap between education and employment. Its emphasis on elevating BIPOC and rural voices sets it apart, offering a truly inclusive approach to reducing barriers and shaping innovative interventions that authentically resonate with and empower our youth." — Hollie Neal Morgan, Fossil Foundation "The coming decades will be some of the most challenging in history, while also being the most opportunity-rich. Questions of intelligence, belonging and humanity ripple through everyday dialog and innovation and adaptable learner-centered programs are rising to the occasion to meet our young people with voice, agency and relationship. Built for More: The Role of Out-of-School Time in Preparing Youth for the Future of Work is a critical compilation of OST stories paints a portrait of nimble, learner-centered environments that prioritize agency and relationships. These stories spotlight crucial programs and education ecosystems from respected voices." — Tom Vander Ark, Getting Smart

This book was released on 2024-06-17 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a world characterized by constant changes, organizations grapple with the complex task of understanding and enhancing human behavior within their ranks. The burgeoning interest in cognitive behavioral neuroscience (CBN) for unraveling the intricacies of organizational dynamics has paved the way for a groundbreaking shift. However, the application of CBN in Human Resource Development and Management (HRDM) remains in its infancy, creating a void between scientific inquiry and practical implementation. As organizations yearn for evidence-based strategies to enhance talent identification, team selection, training, and overall performance, a critical need emerges for a comprehensive guide that bridges this gap. Cognitive Behavioral Neuroscience in Organizational Settings is a groundbreaking book that illuminates the unexplored territory of CBN in HRDM. Positioned as a catalyst for change, this comprehensive guide serves as the linchpin connecting theoretical foundations with real-world applications. Seamlessly navigating through the basics of neuroscience, the anatomy and functions of the brain, and the role of neuroscience in organizational behavior, establishes the groundwork for a new academic discipline. By delving into higher cognitive processes, artificial intelligence integration, neuroscience methods, and CBN-based interventions, the book offers a roadmap to revolutionize how organizations understand, manage, and enhance their human capital.

Download or read book Civil Society and Women Activists in the Middle East written by Wanda Krause and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2012-05-27 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Middle East, and in Egypt in particular, there has always been a tendency to accord complete supremacy to the authority and might of the state, and to see 'society' as a separate, powerless entity. However, after the uprising of 2011, this assumption was turned on its head. And it is the wide range of political activity beyond the remit of the official state where Wanda Krause locates a dynamic potential for political change from the bottom up. She looks in particular at the influential role of women's private voluntary organisations in Egypt in shaping concepts of civil society and democracy. Exploring both secular and 'Islamist' organisations, she offers a steadfast critique of the view that Islamic women activists are insignificant, 'backward' or 'uncivil'. Krause's examination of women activists in Egypt today is vital for those interested in Middle East and Gender Studies, as well as those researching the wider issues of civil society and democratisation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women living in rural regions today still often struggle to harness the full potential of mobile internet for their economic empowerment, despite a rapidly evolving digital landscape. This limitation hinders their ability to engage in online selling, job searching, and accessing public services, thereby constraining potential economic opportunities. The powerful research book, Empowering and Advancing Women Leaders and Entrepreneurs, presents a comprehensive analysis of the impact of mobile internet on gender-inclusive economic empowerment, offering innovative solutions to enhance rural entrepreneur’s digital skills and knowledge. The underrepresentation of women in leadership roles globally must be addressed to advance gender equity. This book examines the systemic barriers, including stereotypes and biases, that impede women's advancement in leadership positions. By proposing coordinated solutions involving corporations, governments, and civil society, such as allyship building and policy reforms, the book aims to reduce gender gaps in leadership and foster a more inclusive society. Through its insightful analysis and practical recommendations, this book is a valuable resource for scholars, policymakers, and practitioners seeking to promote gender equality and inclusive development, and underscores the necessity of their roles for this initiative.
